welfare of the company. The president said that the men, who
have seen a lot of changes in the past thirty years, have each
contributed in his own way to these changes. The president
referred to the service award as "just another indication of our
appreciation for your long service." The president then invited
the representatives of the departments to give a brief review of
the Lago career of the award recipeints.

O.D.L. Phase Two Proceeding


In a further attempt to take greater
advantage of our management abilities
at all levels, Lago is proceeding, begin-
ning later this month, with Phase 2
of the Organization Development Pro-
gram.
In Phase 1, the members of manage
ment working in teams sought to iden-
tify and understand basic management
styles and also to evaluate their own
styles under various conditions. Phase
2 concerns itself with the manager
and his specific work group.
Prior to the start of Phase 2, there


will be a general orientation session to
refresh members in the managerial
grid and team concepts and to discuss
why and how Phase 2 will be accom-
plished.
The Organization Development Labo-
ratories are part of an overall Organi-
zational Development Program which is
coordinated by A. T. Willis. There is
also an ODP Evaluation committee
which assists in developing activities
in subsequent phases of ODP. Present
committee members are J. E. Hughey,

Helping The Aruba Youth


Supervising Chemist Venancio Gomez with twenty-two years
of service is always willing to give the students the benefit of
his experience. He says that he hopes he can help fire the
imagination of a future chemist just as a chemist inspired him
to enter the field twenty years ago. Father of two children, he
knows how to get along with the students.

Quimico Supervisorio Venancio Gomez, kende tin binti-dos
anja di servicio, semper ta gustoso pa duna e estudiantenan e
beneficio di su experiencia. El ta bisa cu el ta spera cu el por
yuda cende e candela di imaginacion pa un future quimico mes-
cos cu un quimico a dune'le inspiration binti anja pasA pa drenta
den e ramo di studio ey. Siendo tata di dos yiu, el sabi com pa
trata cu e estudiantenan.


Cendiendo E Candela Di Imaginacion


The laboratory has always
been a favorite stop for stu-
dents touring Lago. But what
makes it so popular? Is it be-
cause the students are familiar
with some of the equipment
through use in the school lab-
oratories? Or is it because the
Lago men behind this apparatus
are also equipped to success-
fully challenge the young mind
and thrill developing imagina-
tions? The latter possibility
seems more likely.

Pictured on this page are four A"
laboratory men who are both
eager and well prepared to help
the students get the most bene-
fit from their Lago tours.
Lang Geerman is a senior laboratory technician with over
twenty-five years of service. His off-the-job activities indicate
how much he must enjoy explaining his work to the young-
sters. He is president of the Center Juvenil Commandeursbaai,
president of Vivons en Chantant Choir. Through his recent crude
distillation demonstration on Tele-Aruba he has become some-
what of a TV personality. Said one of the students during the
last tour: "I know him, I have seen him on T.V." Mr. Geermar
is married and the father of three girls.
Lang Geerman ta un Senior Laboratory Technician cu tin mas
di binti-cinco anja di servicio. Su actividadnan pafor di trabao ta
indica cuanto el ta goza di splica su trabao na hobennan. El ta
president di e Centro Juvenil di Commandeursbaai, president di
e Koor Vivons en Chantant. Door di su reciente demonstration
tocante distilacion di crudo na Tele-Aruba, el a bira algo manera
un personalidad di television. Uno di e estudiantenan durante e
ultimo bishita a remarca: "Mi conoce'le, mi a mire na television."

Jacintho (Shorty) De Kort, assistant supervising chemist,
also takes time out to explain the work in the Analytical Section
to students. Mr. De Kort is chairman of the committee looking
after the financial matters of the Saint Jacinthus Boy Scouts of
Savaneta. He is the father of three boys, one of which is band-
leader in the Saint Jacinthus Troop. Mr. de Kort and his sons
enjoy fishing together.

At a Latin American Managers meeting in
Bogota in January, Lago President W. A. Mur-
ray described the company's efforts in ODP,
particularly the ODL Seminars, and noted
some results of this effort as:
1. We created throughout our management
team a greater awareness of managerial
styles, our own and others, and an apprecia-
tion of the effect our action have on others.

2. We have become more open and candid in
expressing our ideas and opinions and more
receptive to the ideas and opinions of others.
3. We have become more skilled in techniques
and applications of team action to achieve
sounder solutions to our problems with
greater commitment by those involved in
carrying them out.
4. We have induced genuine desire among our
managers to identify and resolve many of
our long-standing problems.

J. Kock, First Member of SBS Club, Puts Best (Protected) Foot Forward


Six tots ranging from one to
ten years waited in front of the
house at Macuarima 24-B.
Twelve eager eyes scanned the
road for the bus that would
bring their daddy home fromn
work. As soon as the bus turned
the corner, the kids rushed to
the side of the road to welcome
him. Only the one-yea.- old, with


slippers in hand, remained on
the doorsteps. A friendly scuf-
fle ensued among the kids for
the privelege of carrying the
lunch bag or the safety hat....
or be the first one to get that
"special" that daddy sometimes
brought home.
This afterwork routine that
Julian P. Kock, Mechanical wel-


der, has taken as a matter of
course, was almost interrupted
on March 15. That's why he
took special delight in being
with his family again that dav.
But he was quieter than nor-
mal...... he was lost in thought
about an old shoe that made it
possible for him to be with his
family that afternoon... yes
his old SAFETY SHOE.
Nine hours earlier when Mr.


Kock had reported to work west
of the Boiler Shop, it looked
like a fairly routine day too.
But at 10:30, when he came out
of the drum he was working in,
a fifty-pound turnbuckle disen-
gaged from the lifting lugs on
'the drum and dropped on his


right foot. Impact pressure has
been estimated at more than
2,000 lbs.
Mr. Kock feared the worst
but when he took his safety
shoes off, he noticed only a
slight scratch where the nail of
his great toe had pierced the
flesh. He was taken to the Hos-
pital for treatment and obser-
vation; he returned to work the
same day.
Mr. Kock said that had it not
been for his safety shoe, he
would have been disabled for a
long time.
The following day Mr. Kock
was presented with his member-
ship card in the "Saved By Sa-
fety" Club at the site of the ac-


cident. That day the first mem-
ber of the SBS Club "put his
best foot forward" thanks to
his safety shoe.
The SBS Club is an exclusive
club for Lago employees who
have been saved from serious
injuries or death while at work
through the use of company
furnished or company advocat-
ed safety equipment.
In the meantime the after-
work drama continues at Ma-
quarima 24-B: the six kids still
scramble over the privilege of
pampering their daddy. There
is a small change, however, the
father is wearing a pair of
brand new safety shoes.

Arubans Savoring Warmth

Of Dutch Family Life
A new way of life has opened for the hundreds of Antillean
workers in Holland. It is a life not only filled with brisk of the
winter air but also with the warmth and hospitality of the Dutch.
It is a new life, a somewhat different one, but one filled with
promise. Now there is employment security; they are actively
enjoying the unlimited educational opportunities available them
and their children.
In Holland the Antillean family draws closer together: In
winter, for example, they enjoy closer family relationship a la
Dutch. ... this is closely grouped around the fireplace.
The hospitality of the Dutch is reflected in the ever-present
cup of coffee offered wherever one goes on visit. Antilleans feel
the warmth of the Dutch family by the cordial manner in which
they are absorbed in the family.
On the job too, Antilleans receive excellent cooperation from
their Dutch colleagues, which makes the job transition easier.
Despite climatic differences between Holland and the Antilles,
the Antilleans have adjusted rapidly and very well in Holland.
Knowledge of the language and the hospitality of the Dutch no
doubt have helped considerably toward this end.
Although in another country, the Antilleans still cling to cer-
tain customs which remind them of their islands: when the
sound of their recently organized steel band fills the air it is
just like in Aruba. "It is just like in Aruba", commented one of
workers, "I can enjoy for the moment many memories, while
knowing my family has a fuller and more promising future in
store."
